Ponasterone A(Cat No.:R006625)is a naturally occurring ecdysteroid structurally similar to 20-hydroxyecdysone, isolated from plants such as Podocarpus nakaii. It functions as a potent agonist of ecdysone receptors, triggering molting and metamorphosis in arthropods. In molecular biology, Ponasterone A is widely used as an inducer in ecdysone-inducible gene expression systems, allowing controlled transgene activation in mammalian and insect cells. It is non-toxic to vertebrates, making it ideal for regulated expression studies. Ponasterone A is a valuable tool for developmental biology, endocrinology, and gene therapy research applications.
